Sure Schiano’s talked about winning championships since his first day at Rutgers. But he’s also talked about making Rutgers Stadium the place to be for as long.

Thursday night, it absolutely was.

Rutgers alum Shaun O’Hara was scheduled to bring a chunk of his Giants team down the New Jersey Turnpike with him, with defensive end Michael Strahan, linebacker Kawika Mitchell, receiver Plaxico Burress and running backs Brandon Jacobs, Reuben Droughns and Derrick Ward all taking spots on the sideline along their center. Mets third baseman David Wright was spotted, and Yankee pitcher Carl Pavano had requested a sideline pass, too.

By now, one would think that Carl Pavano is the king of the sidelines.
